Question

Can a quadrilateral with four equal sides have less than four lines of symmetry?

Answer 1

Quadrilaterals with 4 equal sides include: squares (I.e. all 4 angles in the shape equal to 90°) and rhombuses (I.e. a diamond shape).

Squares have four lines of symmetry, but rhombuses only have 2 each.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

Yes, a quadrilateral with four equal sides can have less than four lines of symmetry.

Explanation:

Yes, a quadrilateral with four equal sides can have less than four lines of symmetry.

A line of symmetry is defined as a line that line which divides a figure into two mirror image halves.

A quadrilateral is a 4-sided plane shape like square, rectangle, or irregular quadrilaterals.

A quadrilateral with four congruent sides and four right angles is a square and a square is both a rhombus and a rectangle.

But a square has 4 lines of symmetry.

And a rectangle and rhombus have 2 lines of symmetry.
